Oktoberfest began in Munich, Bavaria, Germany as a celebration of the marriage of Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese in 1810. Today it is the world’s largest fair with more than 5 million people attending the 16 day festival. Join us for Oktoberfest in the Starved Rock State Park Lodge Great Hall with its beautiful views of the rock formations and fall colors near the Illinois River. Enjoy German music by the Doodledorfers for the entire evening, 10 beer tasting tickets, commemorative stein, and a German-style buffet with such dishes as Schweinebraten (roast pork), Knockwurst (sausage) with kraut, Spatzel (noodles), sausage & potato skillet, pumpkin bread pudding and many more. This is an evening of German food, beer, music and fun.
